I woke up in the best mood today. And for the first time it's not circumstantial or forced happiness because I know I need to be better. Does that make sense? I'm not happy because something really big and great is happening (although maybe it is and I just can't see it yet) but my brain is happy today. You don't understand how good that feels to have a brain that tells you good things instead of bad. I told B last night that I was excited and for nothing in general, just excited for our life. I know a lot of you responded to the depression post so I just wanted to tell you guys that today I'm okay. Like really okay, dare I say happy and thank you for caring. (Assuming you still care...and if you don't...well this got awkward...)

On a lighter note, I really hope that on my tee these are only words for kissing. I'm putting that on you, J.Crew if it's not. I take no responsibility for accidental international profanity.

Kendi! I am so bummed I didn't get a chance to personally meet you at TXSC this past weekend! You are beautiful inside and out and I wish I could have come and squeezed you! (this could be awkward...) Also! a friend of a friend I believe works in your store? Nicole? Small world! Since I'm based in Fort Worth I hope to make it to the store sometime soon and say hello!

Hi Kendi! I've been reading for years now, but never commented! I TOTALLY understand that feeling (going through some recovery/therapy myself). It always feels like such a blessing, and I'm glad you are experiencing it too.

Your blog is so inspiring for me! You helped me gain confidence in my personal style and schooled me on remixing back in the 30 for 30 days (I know, isn't remixing obvious??? It totally wasn't for me prior). I'm so pleased for you with how your blog has grown and changed. I read it daily! Thanks for sharing your style and life with us.

Kendi, I'm so happy to hear that you are feeling that kind of happy, peaceful sense of well being that can't be forced. That is fabulous and, yes, I do still care!

And thanks for clarifying the t shirt situation bc I was wondering how I had missed it on the J.Crew website. I love it!

You look gorgeous.

Hey, I think you would like my post today about true beauty. I think you are one of those woman who have that unmistakable beauty that radiates from the heart. This is why I love your blog, your style and the real you. You inspire so many of us...don't forget that:)here is the link if you want to take a look:http://classyeverafter.blogspot.com/2013/08/quiet-confidence.html

Hey!Just started reading your blog. I might be your oldest reader at 48. I read a bunch of blogs from some pretty amazing women not just to gain inspiration from the ideas I learn but to get to experience other people. Sometimes we can live in a bubble so thank goodness I have the ability to find blogs that can be helpful to me. My motto is your never to old to learn something new. Life is so full of ups and downs and its what you do with them that counts. Going through the downs helps you appreciate the ups!! I'm sorry we have to experience those downs but hopefully it makes us stronger. Thanks for the inspiration!! Keep up the good work!

I absolutely love this outfit Kendi! I've been coveting that skirt for sometime...probably time I caved and purchased one! Also really good to hear you sharing your progress. Not an easy topic to blog about, so thanks for sharing. Positive energy your way!

I'm so happy to hear you've been feeling better - and HAPPY!! As a counselor, it hurts my little heart when people are struggling with their mental health. Good for you for getting the help you need and feeling better!!

I've struggled with depression off and on for years, so I know how amazing feeling happy is! It's so great that you've been sharing your ups and downs with us. I'm thrilled that you're having some ups lately.

Kendi,I absolutely love this outfit! It’d be perfect for ourweekly link-up. I’d love for you to stop by and link-up your blog so it can be featured next week! :) it’s a great way to gain exposure, not that you need it! Take care. :)
